had the 26" ones for several years now. Nothing to report other than they're still going strong.

Got some on a Swift and can only compare against original steel forks. More responsive steer through twitchy wood trails and overall really like them. Over long day rides think I'd probably find the steel ones less wearing.

Got a 29" set, same as above, had them about a year and no problems. Good value and far better than the original steel forks I had.

Very nice, slightly lighter than On-Ones & better finished. Nicer ride also. Steel Swifts ride nicer IMO, but 200g heavier. I think the same fork, albeit more expensive, is sold (or was), as Nuke Proof & Superstar.
I'll get some more soon.

Got Exotics (26) and have done for approx two years. Still going strong and no problems.

the wheel offset is a bit different to the On One forks and I think the tubes are a bit different layup to make them a bit lighter and more flexible - but remember the on one forks don't carry a weight limit.
